Author's Review
This Bissell Healthy Home vacuum is truly an amazing piece.
It really is healthier for your home. It features very powerful suction, so powerful that when you do small mats you may want to hold them down cause they stick right to the bottom of the vacuum. It pulled out sand and dirt that I didn't know was in there...obviously left behind by my other vacuum and after a steam cleaning. I was horrified and amazed at what actually came out of the carpet. The turbo brush is very powerful and works really well! Removing the pet hair from my furniture is a breeze. I can change from bare floor cleaning to carpet cleaning with the flick of a switch which is really nice. Now I don't have to change tools in the middle of my cleaning job and no running after additional tools. Everything is right there on board. Emptying the dirt container is easy but recommended that you do it outside. Once you see what's in there you won't want the dust to cloud in the house when you empty it. A little heavy to use, all the weight is in the handle of the vacuum but not tiresome to push around.
My only complaint...I wish the turbo brush stored onto the vacuum a little easier than it does.
Overall an excellent vacuum and worth every penny!
I have an update which has been asked for by other readers. Here it is...more on the attachments and use.
I appreciate you taking the time to ask about wanting to know more about the attachments. Sometimes we forget to mention everything. I was just so amazed and wrote what I was most excited about. The hose stretches to the tenth stair of a staircase of 12, the vacuum will roll towards the steps when you pull. Same for using the other attachments, you can only stretch so far until the vacuum rolls backwards. It does not fall over it just follows you. It has a 28" telescopic wand so you can reach to an 8 foot ceiling or so. It has a 15" crevice tool with a fairly open end, a combo soft bristle and hard bristle brush. It also has a Turbo brush, small and very powerful with a rotating brush on it. All the attachments slide onto the hose, there are no snaps to lock into place but none have come off on me while using. They are all on board and store nicely. The only drawback on storing all these tools is the way the turbo brush fits on. Not the easiest to attach for storing. This vacuum also features quick release cord wraps. All the weight is in the handle of the vacuum (around 25 pounds) but not tiring to push around. A very elderly person may have some trouble with it. The hose wraps around the vacuum nicely and easy to get at and use or put back away. It is always connected, all you do is pull the end out of the holder and add your attachment...no hooking up the hose required. Large easy empty container. Easy to get off the machine, easy to put back on. I was able to carry the vacuum up and down the stairs without trouble. The handle release button at the base of the vacuum a little annoying but I think it's just me. On/off button and rotating brush on/off button easy access on top. Dirt container I did open completely and cleaned, easy to do. Large wheels for rolling around...NICE!
This vacuum also has Microban Antimicrobal Protection built in which fights the growth of mold and mildew and odour causing bacteria. It features an airtight hepa filter that is supposed to trap up to 99.9% of pet dander and 100% of dust mites, pollen, ragweed and mold spores. They recommend that you change the filter once about every 6 months. I have not done this yet. Apparently the filters cost around $24.99 to purchase. The multi-cyclonic feature works by dropping larger particles of dirt into the canister first then the air separates into 8 smaller chambers where the extra fine dust is forced out into the inner side of the bin. This is very gross when you actually see it.
Very pleased all around.
Thanks!
Added info: Lifetime belt! I have this yet to challenge.
